Highlights: Colombia 1-1 England (3-4 pens)

England players "created their own story and made history" by beating Colombia on penalties to reach the World Cup quarter-finals, says manager Gareth Southgate.

It was their first shootout victory in World Cup history after defeats in 1990, 1998 and 2006.

Eric Dier scored the winning spot-kick after Jordan Pickford saved Carlos Bacca's effort.

"This was special but I want us to go on," Southgate told ITV.

"I don't want to go home yet."

England will play Sweden in the last eight at 15:00 BST on Saturday.
